Well, it was a combo losing 150lbs/finalizing my divorce/early 29th birthday present but it's a trip to San Diego in July for a convention (Comic-Con), a guided private tour of the Zoo, surfing lessons and meeting up with some friends that are coming down from LA. I've never been to CA or seen the ocean before so I'm excited and looking forward to not being mortified to being seen in a bathing suit!
ShesLosingIt - Wow 150 lbs, that is absolutly incredible!! That sounds like a great reward, you for sure deserved it!!
Well even after a HUGE food ridden valentines day with my ex I still weighed in at 250.6 this morning!!!!! Lets hope for the 240's in the next few days... finally.
Hey ladies! I am a fresh recruit from the 260s thread!
I dropped into the 250s a week ago, and I waited the week to make sure it wasn't just a fluctuation before moving threads. This morning, I weighed in at 252.6, but I do expect a little bounce back up in the morning. I think I'm probably an actual 253-254, in general. We shall see. Anyways, I'm so happy to be in the 250s again (I've been topped out in the 60s for what seems like an aeon), but now I'm looking forward to the 240s and beyond...mind if I join in with you guys?
One lb up today - I'm not worried though, I did 60 minutes of cardio and 20 of kettlebell DVD around 7:30/8:00p last night so that may have something to do with it.
Sheslosingit - Sounds like you had quite the workout, I would weigh heavy if I did that too, you'll have a woosh in no time!!
Well I am 250.6 again this morning... if I am good tonight and work hard in belly dancing class (which I LOVE) I hope to be in the 240's by weigh in friday!!
Had a 0.8+ lb gain this morning, which brings me back up to 253.4...not exactly the way I wanted to start out with my first check-in on this thread, lol. Like I said in a post elsewhere, I know what I did, so I'm hoping my downward trend will start again tomorrow.
For the past couple days, I've been struggling with my sodium intake, so I'll have to pay closer attention to that. And, last night - right before bed - I had a cup of 2% milk and one of the chocolate truffles my DH got me for Valentine's Day...whoops! I know he meant well with them, but I'm not liking having them around, haha. But, there are two good things to go with that...1.) He's way more of a chocolate lover than I am, so I'm sure they'll be gone in no time, and 2.) His other gift, besides some beautiful stargazer lilies, was the EA Sports Active 2 game that I've been wanting for my Wii, so at least I have a new way of working it off while I'm stuck at home! (We both had a good laugh that he got me a big thing of chocolates and then handed me a workout routine right after...)
Anyways, I am off to get ready for work. You girls are doing great, and Essa, I have no doubt you will break into the 240s at last by the weekend! Belly dancing classes sound like a ton of fun!

Well, I survived Valentines and the chocolates hubby bought me without gaining. I'm still at 250.9. My six week checkup is on Friday and I'm really hoping to be down to the 240's, but either way, I think my doctor will be okay with my weight loss since baby.
251.2 this morning... I realized the only beverage I had yesterday was 4 cups of black iced coffee though and no water, so today I am pushing the water and seeing where I end up tomorrow for my official weigh in of the week.
On a side note Belly dancing class is awesome, not as intense as I thought it would be, super fun and a great group of ladies. I am hoping all these shimmys and lifts and rolls help to lean and lengthen me out!!
Back down to 252.2 today...it was definitely the sodium holding me up. Going out to dinner with DH tonight, so hopefully I'll find an option that lets me stay the most on track. We shall see! In other news, I finally got access to signatures -- yay!
Tori - Maintaining weight while in the clutches of holiday candy is still a victory, so my hat is off to you.
Essa - I'm sure the water will get you back on track right away, it always helps for me! Also, I so wish there was a Belly dancing class around my area...now you have me thinking about it, lol. Like I said before, it has always looked like so much fun.
